   if it’s not obvious, this is a proposal. This hasn’t been built. I would be surprised if the land owner paid for this, but i guess I don’t know how real estate works in kazakhstan.

   So the circular light just shines on itself? Looks more like energy waste than astetics or functionality.

   A building, but it’s 40% less building

   That seems like a fantastic waste of energy

   The sun probably rises perfectly in the center when you view it from the water. Guess you could call it the house of the rising sun

   Do planes ever fly through it like gta?

   im pretty sure the way its shaped is due to a superstition (possibly from china but i’m unsure) that buildings with holes in them let out evil spirits and the hole is most likely based off of that

    Did anyone else read "Fundamental Architects" as "Full-Metal Alchemists" and do a double-take?
